AVEA ventilator ®

Focused on outcomes
In the ever-changing world of healthcare, you face more challenging patients and more pressure
to deliver outcomes. The AVEA ® ventilator was designed with you in mind. Its comprehensive
array of clinical tools and advanced monitoring allow you to guide your patient through the
continuum of care simply and efficiently with a focus on improving outcomes.
Advancing patient care
The AVEA ventilator automates many of the routine tasks you
face every day, allowing you to focus on what’s most important—
your patient.

• Automated MIP/NIF, AutoPEEP and Slow Flow maneuvers

• Programmable oxygen increase

• Artificial airway compensation

• Leak compensation

Connecting you to your patient

The exclusive BiCore TM technology integrated into the AVEA
ventilator connects you to your patient like no other ventilator can.

• Work of breathing—guiding ventilator weaning with work of

breathing has been shown to reduce ventilator days.1

• Transpulmonary pressure—studies suggest that the use of

transpulmonary pressure guidance in mechanical ventilation may
allow you to optimize PEEP titration.2 What’s most important is
that this can be done in real time, with no complex maneuvers
and no disruption in ventilation.
 Empowering you to focus on your patient
The AVEA ventilator provides a comprehensive array of modes and advanced features that keep you focused on your patient, not the equipment:

• Volumetric capnography—equipped with this option, the AVEA ventilator adds another key piece of information to provide improved monitoring of patient
condition. When tied with exclusive BiCore technology, this powerful tool provides the most comprehensive monitoring array of any ventilator available.

• Precision gas delivery system—supplies accurate tidal volumes from 2 mL to 2.5 L and was the first of its kind to automatically compensate for heliox gas delivery.

• On-board compressor—The optional on-board air compressor can meet your patient’s needs whether in the ICU or moving to CT scan. This powerful scroll
compressor can only be found on the AVEA ventilator and is capable of operating the ventilator for up to two hours on battery.*

• Communication—three different serial protocols can be selected from the utility screen to simplify integration with hospital information systems or remote
alarm monitoring.
